Dabong is a small town in the peripheral regions of Kelantan, Malaysia, between Jeli and Gua Musang, far from clean, secure sources of water and lack of intricate plumbing. Although the neighbouring waterfall of Gunung Stong offers year-long and free-of-charge water, it is inadequately filtered and sanitized for consumption, particularly during the monsoon seasons when the water becomes muddy and undrinkable for months. During these seasons, the health, learning, farming and general daily life of the villagers are tremendously impacted. The needy villagers are insufficiently financially stable to have their own personal and reliable water filtration system installed.

To improve this situation, the “IIUM Waqf Water for Life” Project, a mini water treatment-plant project by the Islamic Medical Association of Malaysia's Response and Relief Team, or widely known as IMARET, under the SafeWhere (Safe Water Everywhere) Initiative was initiated. The low-cost maintenance of the installed water treatment plant had benefited an average of 200 people daily, according to Ustaz Rashid, the caretaker of the unit. This project further targets to upgrade the current treatment plant with minor modifications to continue providing a treated, safe, and reliable water supply for more of the growing villagers of Kampung Dabong, including the 300 students of Sekolah Kebangsaan Mempelam. The upgraded reliable access to clean water provided by these facilities will facilitate the villagers to unlock their potential by returning time for study and work, instead of working to provide water for themselves, thus improving the productivity and livelihood of the Dabong community.

Any amount of donation to this campaign will greatly help us provide a treated, clean and reliable water supply to Dabong. It is estimated that a total of RM40,000.00 would be required for the following relief activities:

• To repair, service, and improve the current broken water filter system as having the water pump exteriorly, replacing the plastic tank for untreated water and two tanks for the filtered water with better material,
• To distribute the new high quality of drinking water for Dabong community,
• To build a new water drinking system for Sekolah Kebangsaan Mempelam, Jelawang Dabong, Kuala Kerai, and its Surau.,
• To build restroom for the Surau as well as painting the school's Surau, and
• To teach Iqra method for students at this school. The Mission 1. Fostering a sense of belonging and shared responsibility for the obligation to build clean water facilities in Dabong Village.
•  Supplying equitable clean water and easy control, supervision of the water distribution system by the village.
• Creation of prosperity, discipline and security for water user groups in Dabong Village.
• Empowering people through education.
